This Story Has a Punch Line, But I Can’t Repeat It

Pejman has a Tech Central Station column on a weird attack on us by a little-known local columnist, who wrote a piece in which he questioned–I’m not making this up–the size of our reproductive organs. This bizarro column apparently went to press without ever being read by any editor at the Minneapolis Star Tribune, which, to its great embarrassment, published it.
And one of the main points of this over-the-top column–written, one suspects, when its author was not exactly at his best, if you get my drift–was that bloggers lack oversight! Yes, it’s because we lack “oversight” that we make so many references to our intellectual opponents’ genitalia.
And some people wonder why the legacy media are in a death spiral.
